The sentence will correctly be written as :
Upon arriving at the foot of the hill, he felt very proud of himself.
Usage of 'upon' in English Grammar
- In English Grammar, we use the word 'upon' for an event that leads to another event immediately.
- In the above sentence, two events are discussed following each other: the climber setting his foot on the hill followed by he being proud of himself.
- Hence, instead of 'with', 'upon' will be used in the sentence.
